Rank #2 in Best RTX 5070 Graphics Cards: 8 Ranked, £94.54 Apart on Identical Memory
ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 5070 12GB GDDR7 OC
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 5070 12GB GDDR7 OC takes second place in this guide at £709.99. That is £11 above the cheapest of the eight cards and £83.54 below the most expensive, for the same 12 GB of GDDR7 that all eight share. What the extra £11 over the bottom of the list buys is a three-fan TUF cooler and a factory overclock ASUS quotes at 2640 MHz in OC mode and 2610 MHz in Default mode.
Its spec sheet is the tidy one of the group. Both maximum resolution fields say 7680 x 4320, and the memory clock appears as its own figure, 1750 MHz, rather than a copy of the core clock. The 2610 MHz in the spec table matches the 'Default mode' number in the bullet points rather than the higher OC figure, so the two lines need reading together. Two smaller wobbles: the graphics description rounds the clock down to '2.4GHz', and the star breakdown shown with the listing adds up to 100 while the listing reports 217 ratings. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing — we have not tested the card ourselves.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“I upgraded from a 3080 to this in a new build and the performance is second to none. It matches my theme as there's minimal RGB. I will say, you should probably stick with ASUS parts if your looking to build with his as the economy isn't half bad. Temps are great as well! I get great frames on high end games on ultra. I think the minimum I've seen so far is 105 on Cyberpunk fully maxed out at 1440p.”
Verified purchase“For that price this gpu is perfect for me. Fh5 180-190fps, cs2 550-750 fps with low settings and 350-650 fps with max settings 1440p. So I really recommend this gpu in 2026 especially with that ram and gpu prices going up.”
